Programming 12f629 - some tips
PostPosted: Tue Dec 23, 2003 5:31 am     Reply with quote

I have been programming this device for a few days now and can offer these observations which may help.

The 12F629 does not have an A/D converter but you still need to set the Analog Select (ANSEL)register and the Comparator Control (CMCON) register to get the digital i/o working. i.e.

#byte CMCON=0x19
#byte ANSEL=0x9f

main() {

CMCON=0x07; // Comparator off.
ANSEL=0x00; // All i/o digital.

// Normal i/o commands i.e. output_low will now work Smile

}


The #fuses INTRC and INTRC_IO compile to produce a call to 3FFh in order to load the clock calibration value. If the pre-loaded RETLW XX instruction has been erased by erasing the whole device (very easy to do with the PromateII, but not as easy to recover Crying or Very sad ) then the program will hang. This would explain some of the problems reported.

The PICkit 1 Flash starter kit works well with MPLAB and has the very useful facility of being able to re-calculate and re-load the calibration value at 3ffh.

Hope this helps, and I hope this post does not disappear into the ether as my last one did Exclamation
